Hey, i was wondering how many MKII supra fans in this forum are from New Zealand?
:?:
Also, does anyone know why it seems to be impossible to find a P-type Supra in New Zealand :?

Cheers

Are you on SCONZ?
http://www.supras.org.nz?

There are a few of us here too, but more likely to meet people at the NZ club.

Where abouts in NZ? When you say P-type do you mean NZ-new Mk2? The only Mk2's with the flares and 14x7's are NZ-new, and as you can imagine not many were sold in NZ. I have owned mine for 2 1/2 yrs and only ever seen one other NZ-new like mine.

As Andy (spud3861) said, there are a few about - you have to look for them though. The Supra Club Of New Zealand is more about the Mk III but there are still quite a few Mk IIs in there.

Also, does anyone know why it seems to be impossible to find a P-type Supra in New Zealand :?

The P-type is rare-ish in NZ; I was told at one stage only 70 or 75 ever came into New Zealand. I think people are now realising how "rare" a car it is and may be holding on to them.....

And where are you situated????

Join the mailing list from there. I'm from Christchurch, although i'm in the U.S. right now. My car is currently in storage in Auckland... kind of confusing really :wink:

Do you have any pictures of your car? Is yours a NZ-new?

Is the avitar a picture of your car?

I havn't got any pics of my car at the moment, its just a stock L-type import. I got it for $700 at auction with a screwed motor, just put in a standard '84 2.8 in it which is in top condition, its done just over 4000k and the oil is still clean. As soon as i can find some P-Type flares, rims and spoilers i'll get it painted since the body seems to be rust free.
I'll post some pics soon.

I think you may have to get the P-type front guards as well as the flares. There is a slight difference in their shape but the rears are the same, L-type or P-type (just bolt on the flares). There is a guy in the Supra Club of New Zealand, Ewan Paterson, who has some moulds for the flares and can possibly help out when the time comes.

If I can help in any way, just drop me a pm.
